We tried to go to a diner for breakfast, but apparently we are early risers and they weren't open yet. It did help us stumble onto this pond and dock on the Erie Canal.
Next, we decided to go to the Sacred Grove while it was early and there wouldn't be many people.
We ended up staying for a long time, walking all around, reading the Joseph Smith story and singing. I loved the peaceful feeling there.
At the Visitor's Center, we found a sculpture of Joseph Smith that James' uncle made. He actually has a very artistic family that has made many art pieces for the Church.
Trina met up with us at that point. She grew up in Palmyra, and was a great tour guide. We went to the top of the Hill Cumorah...
...grabbed some lunch at the cute cafe we'd try to go to earlier that morning...
...and toured the Grandin Printing Press, where the first edition of the Book of Mormon was published...
...before Trina took us to her favorite ice cream joint. I told you she was a great tour guide. ;)
